A spokesman for the Saudi ministry of the interior said that the Saudi security forces detained last week a Saudi suspect at a border point with Kuwait and he is been investigated over being involved in Houli clashes to the south of the capital.

Maj. Gen. Mansour al-Turkey said that the suspect was arrested at a border point with Kuwait, two days after the Houli clashes that resulted in killing two persons at the hands of the Kuwaiti security forces and the killing of one member of the armed group which clashed with the security forces.
